Lobster!!!

A while back, Jay was in Nova Scotia visiting the dealer and on the way back he decided to pick up a lobster in the airport.  Yes, they sell fresh lobsters in the airport for you to buy!  And they are pretty reasonable - they will even steam it for you if you want.  But Jay brought home a live one and ever since then, Arabella has been asking him to bring home a lobster every time he visits Nova Scotia.  A few weeks ago her went and she reminded him to bring one home...I'm not sure why she wants him too since she really won't try more than 1 bite and I don't eat it either.  But he did and she was so excited!  They opened the box and took him right out.  She even held him.  And for the next 24 hours he hung out in our fridge waiting to be boiled alive!  Arabella tried it at dinner and Jay ate most of it.  He enjoyed it!





And speaking of lobster, in February of this year, Jay had to travel to Grand Manan Island, New Brunswick for a site visit.  The site was a a lobster farm.  It was interesting to see how the lobsters are kept before going to market. 



And look how big this one is!  Can't imagine how much he would cost...I actually think they should let him go.

Needless to say, we miss Jay when he travels, but he gets to visit some pretty cool places!
